That's so awesome! It also looked cool before you painted the lava, it looked a little bit like a temple that was being flooded with water... hmmm ideas 💡 The end result was certainly worth it, I bet it looks even better in person! Keep up the amazing work 😉

I'm beginning to realise that with many washes better realism can be achieved. My row of terraced houses has a slate roof with nice slimy green washes around the chimney pots. Thanks for the video. .

I like your builds. They are so inspiring. I have noticed that you seem to be struggling a bit with removing supports from your resin prints. I had the same problems, but I have found a solution.I set the exposure time to a value where the finished print is quite soft and the supports are very flexible. After washing off the uncured resin I put the model in hot water for about 5 minutes. With this treatment the supports come off easily and you will get only very few marks if any, and you don't have to sand the model that much. At the end I do the final curing.

Wow, a really nice idea -and a superb implementation. I have always been a fan of Lara Croft. Especially the older games developed by "core design" were my absolute favourites. Some time ago I converted a few female "action figures" in 1/6th scale to represent Lara in her diverse outfits. Unfortunately it is difficult (or in most cases impossible) to find the correct clothing (I cannot sew) and weapons (for instance her beloved shotgun).

The solution to all crafting issues...? Just remember to think of this little axiom... : "I just need to add more..." Paint, washes, glue, super-glue, hot-glue texture, foam bricks, bushes, trees, water-effects, wood planking, saw dust grass, (and of course...) LIGHTS!!! TONS OF FREAKIN' FLASHING, MULTICOLOR, REMOTE CONTROL, LED LIGHTS!!! Though, taking a break and consuming mass quantities of alcohol and food also does the trick!!! (Company optional) P.S. really nice diorama Kathy!!!

Awesome diorama & especially nice work on the lava!! Was searching for a "LED lava method". Do you think the fluorescend paints boost the lava effect by a lot or are they not really neccesary? I guess the biggest effect out of the LEDs comes from the translucent gel, right? Thanks for helping!
